Pros

Deepgram is a fun and flexible place to work (and the swag is nice too). People are excited about their work and care about their teammates. It is a great place to learn things you didn't even think you wanted to learn about (like language!) and a great place to show off your skills and carve a niche for yourself. There is a ton of room to grow and expand especially because so many things are still flexible and not 100% set in stone.

Cons

The company is young and things can be chaotic, overwhelming, amorphous or poorly defined, and difficult to figure out what exactly is next or what you should be doing in terms of what is best. It can be difficult to learn and find knowledge especially with an entirely remote team. But, a lot of the cons are related to the youthfulness of the company and its quick growth - or in other words, start up life. If you love it, it can be great.

Pros

Deepgram has a great product with great market share and great finances. They are well positioned to continue to dominate the voice market, the product really works and the tech is strong. Many ICs are some of the smartest people you will ever meet and there are many wonderful people that contribute to a strong culture despite leadership.

Cons

Nepotism, sexism, and racism are quite deeply ingrained in the company culture meaning some people are given high titles and praise while you pulling their weight, while others work constantly and very effectively only to see little success. The people and the loyalty they feel to the company and each other is the company's greatest asset and yet leadership does not recognize this. Many people feel undervalued and unappreciated despite contributing to major deals, working around the clock, or being the hero on a major project. Many people have developed serious health issues due to the stress of working for Deepgram.
